It shouldn't be a business.
4 years ago
I used to be an avid martial artist (TKD) and made it to 2nd Degree before the rat race swallowed me up. I haven’t practiced any martial art in over 5 years and my body is not as spry as it once was (I was also a competitive gymnast).
My problem is that every place I have looked into is run purely as a business. Meaning, as long as you pay, they will let you “be” a martial artist. That is bullshit. I quit the last place because I was tired of passing people that shouldn’t have made it to yellow belt (2nd belt in the school I was at).
When I find a place that actually instructs people, I would consider going there. Fat chance of that ever happening.
